The important fact was that, I love the gospel, and had the desire to serve, and bring souls unto the fold. And also to make sure that those who I taught should remain true, and faithful to the end. (Quita)

My mission was the greatest mission ever in the world and the highest baptizing in Africa. We had the best of missionaries. (Mbora)

The 2nd highest baptizing mission at the time behind Brazil. (Holdbrook)

The people was very good. I really enjoyed the presence of the people. (Jones)

The place was conducive and people were very receptive and friendly. (Ibrahim)

Wow, where I served the people were loving, open and always receptive. They were a friend to me as a stranger, but not all were willing to accept the Gospel, but in time I know they will accept it. (Quita)

The people of Ohafia were great people, we covered 26 villages, this makes the work very interesting, Aba, for three months there were no baptisms, we prayed and after that we started working with the members and that was the beginning of success, then to Ubakala, it wasn’t easy, 6 months and just for baptism, back to Umuahia, just 2 baptisms. The people were lovely, I still love them and I keep praying for them. (Ogbonna)

70 percent of the people were receptive to the Gospel. I learned their language easily. (Mbora)

Hospitality and love. (John)

I love them… they were very polite and open even those who did not convert. (Holdbrook)

Any packing/clothing advice?

I will encourage prospective missionaries to always obey the mission rules. (Jones)

I received many blessings such as, good health, peace and long life. (Jones)

My mission helped me to be bold in approaching people. I adapted myself in the mission lifestyles. (Ibrahim)

A very huge blessing- I came back home, got married the next year (2005), went to the Ghana Accra Temple, was sealed to my husband, went to school, graduated from college with a 3-point GPA. Even though I don’t have my own biological children yet, I am blessed to be taking care of 47 orphans and I love it. I also decided to volunteer for the Employment Resource Service for nine years. Those are blessings I’ve received from serving a mission. (Quita)

I am married and sealed to my eternal companion. We have a lovely son. I couldn’t have asked for more… I am currently my ward’s bishop. (Mbora)

I am now bold while speaking in public. I can face any sight so far as it concerns defending the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I now ride a bicycle more perfectly than before. My leadership qualities have been broadened. (Mbora)

How to serve others and love them. (John)

How to relate with people. (Holdbrook)

What do you wish you knew/did at the beginning of your mission?

I wanted to know more about missionary work and to do more. (Jones)

To love all my investigators. (Ibrahim)

I wish I did more preparation. (Quita)

I wish I knew all my scripture mastery passages. I truly wish I knew them perfectly at the beginning. (Mbora)

Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ that He will do the convention for my companion and l. (John)

Na. (Holdbrook)

Any advice/testimony for pre-missionaries going to Port Harcourt?

I will encourage them to obey the laws of the church. (Jones)

They should proselyte with full-time missionaries, and learn from them before going on a mission. (Ibrahim)

All that prospective missionaries of my mission need to do is, be prayerful and read the scriptures constantly, so they can always have the Spirit to be with them. And they must be willing to be humble, respectful, keep all mission rules and laws. I will bear them my witness that those are instructions I used to make me a very successful missionary, and a returned missionary. Obey, obey, and obey always, so that you can be strengthened on the mission field. (Quita)

Be humble and study your scriptures and always allow the Spirit to guide you. The mission is where we learn from the Lord. It is a place of work. I know that these things are very true, may we do all that we can to obtain the Lord’s blessing. Go and do all the Lord has commanded. (Ogbonna)

Go forth with faith. (Mbora)

Be selfless and the Lord will use you for great things. (Holdbrook)

What was a funny language mistake?

We made mistakes in the Igbo language. (Jones)

Bullying and pretending to be all right when in quarrel sometimes. (Ibrahim)

Not to my knowledge!! (Quita)

My companion almost spoke his home language while teaching…we almost laughed. (Mbora)

The phrase “Aba adeye” and you response “eduko” this was a huge problem for my companion to learn. (John)
